Daniel Day Lewis, what a man. Comes down from the mountains in tibet every 3 or 4 years and graces our presence with a movie and danders back up the hill with an Oscar.

I've never understood the Day-Lewis being Irish thing - I know he has dual nationality alright

back up the mountains. He's a bit like bigfoot, sightings are rare but never seems to entirely go away.
